believe in somETHing Engineering Ethereum’s future, together.

Starting the week with gm and a nod to appchains carving their own lane after CryptoKitties’ lessons. Did you catch our latest podcast episode? Thanks to @l2beat founder @bkiepuszewski and researcher @donnoh_eth for joining IBTIA to share their views on Ethereum’s future, the long game of decentralization and security, how we’ve come full circle back to appchains, and much more.

Friday’s here, and so is Cartesi Weekly with the roundup of ecosystem news 🐧 Whether you’re curious about how the PRT Honeypot works or want to take your first validator steps and run a node, now’s your moment: @ChinonsoIdogwu cooked up a second step-by-step tutorial for a cloud setup, following last week’s guide for running your node locally: → For insights on how the bar has been raised in Ethereum rollups’ decentralization, security, recategorizations, and stages, plus a sneak peek at the future, listen to our latest podcast episode with @l2beat researchers, now also on Spotify: → The conversation around fraud proofs is intensifying on our feeds, and it’s refreshing to see growing interest in tackling this important topic, as @claudioengdist points out. To catch all the learnings, follow our R&D Lead @GCdePaula_’s interactions: → For those interested in fraud proofs, Cartesi’s peer-reviewed paper, "Dave: a decentralized, secure, and lively fraud-proof algorithm," published in @ACMDL, explores how decentralization, security, and liveness can be improved in optimistic rollup disputes. Read it here: → Also this week, our listing in Ethereum’s Strategic Reserve was revealed. This initiative reflects the shared confidence of purpose-aligned projects in Ethereum’s future: → And the Cartesi Foundation announced it has finalized the $CTSI buyback decided back in April: → New podcast live with our co-founder @felipeargento on @BlocksterCom. Hear about Cartesi’s architecture, mission, and verifiable onchain computing using familiar languages: → That’s it for now. Want more Cartesi in your feed? Follow us on your favorite onchain social platforms too: → Farcaster: → Mirror: Until next time, keep building!

Another way to run your very own PRT Honeypot node, this time with a cloud-hosted setup. With , spinning up a validator is easier than ever: 5 simple steps and you're helping secure the app yourself. All shown in this video tutorial to make it easy ↓

Our research leads @bkiepuszewski & @donnoh_eth joined the @cartesiproject team to unpack rollup standards, risks, and recategorization - and what it really means to raise the bar for Ethereum scaling. This is the freshest L2BEAT take on the L2 landscape you’ll find - tune in!

Brain to Board with L2BEAT Researchers, Bartek Kiepuszwski and Luca Donno | S3 EP13

Grab a seat and join us live in 30 minutes, right here on X or YouTube, for a new episode where our hosts, @joaopdgarcia and @GCdePaula_, unpack what raising the bar for Ethereum scaling really means with @bkiepuszewski and @donnoh_eth from @l2beat. →

🟢 SΞR NEWS: @cartesiproject has acquired 251 ETH ($930K), increasing their ETH reserve to 1,037 ETH. New rank: #38 (from #42). Welcome to the 4-digits club.

The Cartesi Foundation has now completed the $500,000 USD open market purchase of $CTSI, reaffirming its support for the ecosystem, developers, and broader community. This highlights a strong belief in the project’s vision and capacity to shape the future of dApp development.

This Wednesday on IBTIA, we hand the mic to @bkiepuszewski and @donnoh_eth from @l2beat to unpack their perspective on rollup standards, risks, recategorization, and what it means to truly raise the bar for Ethereum scaling. Tune in! → or live here on X
